My mother has made this Swiss steak recipe with brown gravy for years. It is wonderful and can be made on the stovetop or in a slow cooker when you don't have much time but want a hearty meal ready when you come home. Serve over a bed of egg noodles or rice with a chunk of thick crusty bread.

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil

  • 2 pounds cube steaks, pounded thin and cut into bite-sized pieces

  • 1 ½ tablespoons all-purpose flour

  • 2 (14.5 ounce) cans stewed tomatoes

  • 1 pound mushrooms, sliced

  • 1 medium onion, chopped

  • 1 (1.2 ounce) package brown gravy mix

  • salt and pepper to taste

  • 1 (12 ounce) package egg noodles

Directions

  1. Heat oil in a Dutch oven over medium heat.

  2. Dredge steak strips in flour; shake off excess.

  3. Working in batches, fry steak in hot oil until browned. Remove to a warm platter.

  4. Return browned steak to the Dutch oven. Stir in stewed tomatoes, mushrooms, onion, gravy mix, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 30 to 45 minutes.

  5. About 20 minutes before steak is finished, fill a large pot with water and bring to a boil. Add egg noodles to boiling water and cook until al dente, about 8 to 10 minutes; drain.

  6. Serve Swiss steak over noodles.

Tips
